Ingredients: About 3 servings

Steps

1.
Boil the cauliflower briefly in salted hot water (I actually recommend microwaving it for a short time, to prevent it from getting watery). Drain well in a colander.

2.
Arrange the cauliflower florets in an oven-safe dish. Sprinkle evenly with lots of basil and oregano, a modest amount of cayenne pepper, and 2 pinches of salt. Coat evenly with panko. With mayonnaise, draw a zig-zag on top. Sprinkle with tons of parmesan cheese.

3.
Bake in a toaster oven until the cheese is golden brown and fragrant. Grind black pepper on top and serve.

Story Behind this Recipe

I bought cauliflower, realizing I hadn't eaten it for a while. I wanted to come up with quick ways to enjoy it. This one was so delicious, my husband was almost speechless while he was eating it. When I got him seconds, it made him so happy, and he said: "There's more? That's great!" And he ate some more. I think he liked it a little crispy.

Helpful Hints

I think it's better to cook the cauliflower quickly to retain its toothsome texture. Use lots of cheese! You can go ahead and use different kinds of cheese. I personally recommend mozzarella. If you like it spicy, use lots of cayenne pepper. I had this with roasted sliced almonds. Give it a try! As a side note, I halved the ingredient measurements when I took the photo.
